Child Care Articles: Bathing Aids, Safety Requirements, and Test Methods
Also Known As:
A standard known as BS EN 17022:2018 outlines the safety criteria and testing procedures for bathing aids designed for bathtub use. These stand-alone bathing aids were not created for kids with special needs and are for general use. It's vital to remember that this requirement does not apply to bathing accessories designed to be used only with a child's bath tub.
Two significant notes are also included in the standard. According to Note 1, a different standard called EN 17072:2018 governs non-standalone bathing aids, which are only intended to be used in conjunction with a child's bath tub. Note 2 emphasizes that a bathing aid must adhere to the appropriate criteria for each function it performs, even if it has many purposes or can be changed into another one.
The ultimate goal of BS EN 17022:2018 is to ensure the safety of bathing accessories used by children by establishing standards and testing procedures for these stand-alone bathing aids.
